Last night at the Tony Awards Pink was the host and to celebrate 30 years of the Chicago revival on Broadway she gave a truly incredible rendition of All That Jazz which is not only my favourite musical song ever but one of my all time favourite songs!
She was terrific! My wife had her Guest Host her show for a week and she was engaged, collaborative and so energetic and fun! We got to watch the full dress rehearsal yesterday morning in Radio City and it was so great! Only two of the presenters failed to show up for it, which is bad form and shame on them. Lea Michelle, Annette Bening, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and the others were all there at 9a for the full run through of the entire show and it was so much fun to see in person!

Oh wow! What an amazing experience that must have been! I attended the Tony Awards in 2008 and it was one of my most favourite nights.

Pink really gave it so much energy – but really they all did – we saw “Schmigadoon” on Saturday and it’s funny, heartwarming and so catchy! An home to so many great musical and Ana Gasteyer blows the doors of with her song, an homage to “Trouble In River City” from “The Music Man!” I think it’s called “Turmoil In Schmigadoon” and it’s hilarious!

I head out to NYC next month for 7 nights, so hoping to catch some Broadway (if I can get some cheaper tickets, its very very expensive now)

TKTS always has the best deals…so many great shows but Schmigadoon!, The Lost Boys (incredible technology on display) and Titanique! Although I know you have that in London, but all the pop culture references will be new! So much to see there will always be something on sale!

Thanks for the advice! I have seen Titanique and totally loved it!
As much as I have seen them both many times I am very tempted with Chicago and Rocky Horror

Go Rocky Horror for sure! Luke Evans, Juliette Lewis and Rachel Dratch are terrific – entire cast is and the energy in the theater is great! You will have a great trip here – what a city!
